Puma's are great cars, I had a mint 1.7 and really enjoyed the driving experience, great handling and peppy little motors.
Unfortunately, some drink driving arsehole smashed into it while parked up outside my house and wrote it off!

as Vaughant said, only issue is the rear arches rotting, mine had started to get the tell tale bubbling/rusting on the drivers side arch, which i had spent good money getting repaired before Mr dickhead drove his Astra sporthatch over it!.

Here it was; would serioulsy consider having another, probably go for a 'thunder' or 'millenium' special edition tho
